  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    That's the one I had I think, it was blue and white, white part could be a pen by itself which was handy
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    god damn I haven't seen one of those things in a hot minute
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    Eventually upgraded to a 512mb from another brand (wasn't so good though, forgot about it)
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    In high school, I got an Ipod Nano 5th gen
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    still have it, still works
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    My first mp3 player was a 4th gen ipod w/ click wheel, 20GB. Thing was slick as hell back then and I wish I still had it today. Kicker was when I got it, we still had win98 on our home PC, minimum requirements for itunes was winXP, and my parents wouldn't upgrade 😭
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    Mine was the first laptop I had.

    akljdaskldjalskdajkls insane wtf https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VuDTixfKsCQ
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    original Ipods had massive storage, it was pornographic
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    I never used itunes, always used one of those programs to bypass it, just drag and drop
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I didn't know the other programs at the time :( honestly not even sure if any existed yet at that point
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    I just googled and drag and drop seemed to be possible at the time
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    idk, but in high school at least, I used my ipod as a portable HDD to store World of Warcraft game files on and play it on the school PCs when I was done with my work each class :lol:
  • Plazorn @ Plazorn:
    I finally got a proper torrenting vpn!
  • Plazorn @ Plazorn:

    B-)

    Nice. What VPN? PIA?
  • Plazorn @ Plazorn:
    It's called AirVPN, it was highly recomended by fmhy
  • Plazorn @ Plazorn:
    It supports port forwarding as well!
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Nice. I use privado VPN, got it for free with one of my usenet providers. It sucks, doesn't support port forwarding so I have issues connecting to a lot of peers. But still prefer it over not using one

  • Plazorn @ Plazorn:
    I guess it's better than nothing. What's the advantage of Usenet?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @Plazorn, upsides to usenet - SSL encrypted so no vpn needed, it downloads from the usenet provider's servers and is not peer-to-peer, generally can download as fast as your internet/router/storage can possibly allow, usenet providers in different countries have different takedown policies a la DMCA, and if you have multiple providers you might be able to grab bits and pieces of a file from multiple providers in order to still get stuff that was removed from one (they generally don't remove all parts of the file, just enough to make it non-functional)

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Downsides is it does cost money, having multiple providers is useful as mentioned above but then you're paying more money, and you need NZB indexers (the usenet parallel to a torrent tracker) and the good ones also usually cost a small amount of money.
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Oh yeah, also since it's not P2P there's no ratio to maintain or anything. If you wanna download 5TB a day or whatever, knock yourself out
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I generally prefer usenet over torrents, but I do like having torrents as a fallback option
